Yes, the magnetic poles do wander. So do the rotational poles. Much less so than the magnetic poles, by a matter of centimeters over time.
They are correct in the shifting of the poles. However , it is the magnetic poles which do this all the time.
From 1982 to 2005, the pole drifted southeast toward northern Labrador, Canada, at a rate of about 2 milliarcseconds —or roughly 6 centimetres — per year. But in 2005, the pole changed course and began galloping east toward Greenland at a rate of more than 7 milliarcseconds per year.
Antarctica is the coldest, windiest and driest continent on Earth. The average annual temperature ranges from about −10°C on the Antarctic coast to −60°C at the highest parts of the interior. Near the coast the temperature can exceed +10°C at times in summer and fall to below −40°C in winter.Jun 25, 2002
